Permanent offers third party health care adminstration

Permanent Insurance is teaming up with IT solutions specialists Sherwood International to offer Income Protection insurers a third party processing and administration service.

The facility will offer full administration and processing support for PHI, CII and LTC plans for organisations launching these products and for companies with existing products which want to move to a specialist third party supplier.

Permanent Insurance managing director Andrew Chapman says: &#34We already provide an administration service to both our existing and former parent companies. Joining forces with one of the leading outsourcers in the insurance market was a logical one because it makes our services more widely available.&#34
